I'm heading to UTOPIA Con {June 22-24} in Nashville. {Anyone around? Come!} I'm looking forward to it, and plan to meet a lot of great people and have fun conversations. I've designed some fresh swag and am finally getting a few things in my shop in preparation! I have buttons from THE Q and THE BOOKS OF IMIRILLIA, and I'm also trying to have some t-shirts, and other fun paraphernalia in my website store within the next few days for all my books!  I also have a  set of designs that I will be...

It's May! A beautiful month that always makes me want to wander. It's a month made for reading, for fresh places under our feet and new books in our hands. It is a month blessed by the spirit of adventure and possibility. So, to celebrate, all my books for the Kindle are on sale! Journey with The Books of Imirillia, or saunter along the streets of Rhysdon with The Q. Happy reading! 

It's been a fantastic month of THE Q finding its readers, and I have finally posted my soundtrack! It's a fun listen, and I think you'll enjoy it.

Do you have any songs you would add? Let me know what you think!

It's been a great couple of days since the release of The Q, and the book is beginning to find its way to readers!I know the characters are relieved to be out and about, able to stretch their legs and walk the city of Rhysdon. Quincy St. Claire says thank you for your support. Or, rather, she would.If she were not busy at the moment. Never fear. Her solicitor, James Arch, will certainly send you a beautifully scripted thank you note in a charcoal grey envelope. He might even be able to say...

YOU CAN PURCHASE THE Q HERE!

IT'S RELEASE DAY FOR THE Q, AND IT'S A PERFECT DAY FOR IT!

It's here. October 19th. The day marked on my calendar when the city of Rhysdon and the offices of The Q are to welcome visitors from far and wide. The Q is a special print shop. It's passion, energy, and unparalleled expectations make it a natural gathering place for the entire strata of the city of Rhysdon. That translates to the readers, too. Hopefully everyone finds something to love, someone to cheer o...

Hey all! Now that the book has been out a week I'm celebrating by posting the rest of the soundtrack!

Okay. Ready to hear how the journey ends? Let's go.

In anticipation of The Wanderer's Mark, I wanted to do a few more illustrations from the first two books. Here, in this scene from The Queen's Gambit,Eleanor is studying the Imirillian scrolls.

And below is the illustration video that I posted on my fledgling youtube channel. I have the best time deciding which techno music will be on it. There are many laughs as I sit here by myself.

Hope you enjoyed!

Cheers,

I'm trying to do more art. Specifically, more book/character/setting related art. It's nothing grand. I am a writer who likes to practice with different art mediums. But I want to create a small portfolio of images that tie back into the worlds of my books. Last night, thinking about The Wanderer's Mark, I drew up this moment I call Hold Your Ground. This exact scene never happens in the book, but it is the feeling of so many difficulties. It's a rough rendition of Basaal. Not necessarily THE...
